I was listening to Flo the other day and the track “Twale”
was on repeat all day. I decide to call God beautiful names in my language, and
I could only call him about 5 names in my language. I rang up my folks and they
gave me names.
Here are names I still remember with the meaning too. I am very
sure most of the spellings are incorrect, but hey “Idea is need”!

I am interested to know what you call God in your language.
Please and please, drop a comment telling me. I promise to add it to this list.
But please tell me what tribe you are and the language you speak too so we clarify it for everyone.
